I'm Really Not Faye

Chapter 319 Neural Network

Just as Lynch was addicted and hesitated about the interface module of the processor built for him by the god of fate, he suddenly found that the chip that was also under construction in his mind was heading for a new chapter.

Very different from the simple CPU chip model he once conceived, it is not the GPU chip model that has only recently changed his mind.

It is a more extreme chip model.

AI chip.

As we all know, there are many types of chips. If they are divided by manufacturing process, microcomputers and mobile phones are the key to consumer electronics. Naturally, the best consumer chips are allocated, such as the latest flagship phones launched by various mobile phone manufacturers every year. Without the latest 870880 chip, I am absolutely sorry for this title.

Even if some of the chips in it are very hot or even costly because of their performance, but the name of the latest and strongest cannot be underestimated, otherwise consumers will immediately teach life this year.

In addition to these chips, there are still different types of chips. They do not need to use the most advanced 5nm process. They can even be controlled by single-chip microcomputers, including but not limited to ARM, DSP, etc., which is the general term. Mcu chip.

Their manufacturing process is 28nm high, but it is a huge consumption. For example, cars are the main consumption of this kind of chips. The simplest two windows are required to control the lift, let alone automatic assisted driving and other complexities. Functional modules.

The AI ​​chip is a chip type that is more extreme than the GPU on top of alienation.

If it is a GPU, it is a more demanding ALU unit (arithmetic logic unit) than a CPU.

Then the AI ​​chip is a dedicated chip customized for the AI ​​algorithm, so the energy consumption is lower when the AI ​​algorithm is executed, and the efficiency is higher.

Lynch first looked at the “processor” module that the goddess used to stimulate his creative efficiency with the “sacred word of creation”, and soon discovered the difference between it and the ordinary chip structure.

For the category of autonomous driving, ordinary CPU processor calculations cannot meet the needs because the calculations are not strong, so the speed cannot meet the needs. As for the GPU chip, it meets the needs, but its high cost and power consumption are often beyond the consumer’s range.

At this time, AI chips specially customized to fit these application scenarios came into being, such as the graphics chips used in Google’s early training of Alpha Dog, and late stage AI chips developed by themselves for training directly.

Only then did Lynch remember it ignorantly.

The AI ​​chip can win because the AI ​​algorithm involves too many convolutions, residual networks, and fully connected type calculations.

These calculations are essentially addition and multiplication.

Similar to the calculations of those spell models that Lynch had come into contact with.

You know, a more mature AI algorithm, if it is executed once, it is easily equivalent to trillions of addition and multiplication calculations.

And more advanced CPU processors, counting the number of calculations per second of multi-core is only tens of billions.

There is a time gap to deal with trillions of times.

It’s like TPU1 developed by Google. Its calculation times per second is close to 100 trillion times.

The ai algorithm, which has been calculated trillions of times, has been executed hundreds of times in one second.

If the GPU is specifically separated from the CPU to process image calculations, then the AI ​​chip is specifically separated from the processing of AI algorithm calculations.

All of this stems from the dependence of deep learning on neural network algorithms!

Unhappily.

At this time, Lynch looked at this miracle that had just been established in his mind, and couldn’t utter a word.

No matter how much you say, it’s all superfluous.

The magic model itself involves the most basic addition and multiplication operations.

And Lynch’s original plan was to transform to artificial intelligence in the future, but he didn’t expect that he would still be lifted a step abruptly here.

At this moment, he looked at the gods on the opposite side again, and the other side looked at Lynch with satisfaction.

Obviously, Lynch understands the structure of the AI ​​chip and will not let the Orb have a day of dust.

“Neural Networks!”

The gods sprouted a terrifying sound, and once again swept Lynch’s eardrums.

And in his mind, all the information about this algorithm was suddenly reorganized, and the part that was rewarded for knowing was combined again.

Like something indescribable, when it first came out, the CPU was digging it. In this case, it is all specially customized mining machines, and these mining machines are AI chips.

ACIS (AI chip) is calculating Realm, and it can be regarded as being killed out of the big screen of CPU and GPU.

Lynch curled his lips.

Spells.

magic.

Spell model.

Regarding the most reliable casting method, it is natural to teach the processor to complete the entire casting process by itself.

The external PID deals with the overall secret energy field parameter problem, while the internal one is the AI ​​chip processing the calculation problem of the spell model.

All this process requires is iteration.

After going through the process again, Lynch couldn’t help sighing with emotion.

He still remembers the university’s graduation thesis topics. At that time, each tutor formulated the topic according to their own professional scope, and then the students signed up and chose it.

At that time, Lynch was slow to choose, and what was left in the end was a number of “algorithmic questions” that were not easy to chew.

After all, to make an algorithm, the cemetery is to optimize its parameters, so that the entire calculation time is shorter, the effect is more accurate, and finally more optimized. But every year, generations of students have already picked up the obvious gems in the desert. The remaining methods It is also nonsense that the path of postgraduate and doctoral students is to enclose a piece of land by yourself and continue to dig down. It is simply nonsense to pick out diamonds with a glance.

But Lynch finally thought about it several times and chose a genetic algorithm to do the global optimization problem. As a result, matlab had a complete set of mature toolkits at that time. Lynch still wrote the function honestly by himself, and finally produced a reluctant article. paper.

In the end, when facing the review experts’ questions about the innovation, Lin Qi could only answer in front of him. The combination of these parameters he used did not meet the previous articles, so he barely made a splash.

And his roommate who chose the neural network algorithm was questioned on the spot for falsification of simulated data and almost postponed.

Later, in order to help his roommates, Lynch was the first time he came into contact with neural network algorithms.

Undoubtedly, in the neural network algorithm, the secret energy field parameter is the “input matrix”, and the magic model result is the “output matrix”.

Immediately, Lynch wrote a paragraph on the ground——

Neural network (NN).

Artificial Neural Network (ANN).

A large number of simple calculation units (neurons) constitute a nonlinear system.

To a certain extent, it simulates the information processing, storage and retrieval functions of the brain.

The error backward learning algorithm of BP network.

The error after output is used to estimate the error of the direct leading layer of the output layer, and then the error of the previous layer is updated with the error, and the error estimation of all other layers is obtained by passing it back in this way.

…

He reorganized the knowledge of the entire neural network step by step.

He believed that this was also what the god evil on the opposite side was waiting for.

This is also an exchange between the two!

An unspoken tacit understanding.
